An apparatus includes a capturing unit, a first motion information acquisition unit configured to acquire a first captured image with a first parameter and first motion information, a second motion information acquisition unit configured to acquire second motion information, a setting unit configured to set a second parameter, a third acquisition unit configured to acquire driving information for either the optical system or the capturing unit, an estimation unit configured to estimate estimated information by converting motion blur of the object in the first captured image into motion blur of the object in a second captured image obtained in a case where second capturing is performed with the second parameter, and a notification unit configured to notify the estimated information.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the estimation unit estimates the estimated information using the first information, the second information, the second parameter, and the driving information.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the driving information includes at least information about a driving amount and a driving direction.
8. The apparatus according to claim 7, wherein the determination unit determines whether to use the driving information for the estimation unit depending on a mode of the apparatus.
9. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the determination unit determines whether to use the driving information for the estimation unit depending on the presence or absence of a correction lens and a driving control unit of the optical system.
10. The apparatus according to claim 7, wherein the determination unit determines whether to use the driving information for the estimation unit depending on a movement direction of the apparatus.
11. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the second capturing is main capturing and the first capturing is preparatory capturing to be performed before the main capturing.
12. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the at least one processor further functions as a display unit configured to display and notify the estimated information.
13. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the notification unit notifies motion blur by displaying an image representing a frame on the display unit.
14. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the notification unit notifies motion blur by displaying an image representing a motion blur edge in an emphasized manner on the display unit.
15. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the notification unit notifies motion blur by displaying an image representing a positional relationship between a base icon and an icon on the display unit.
16. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the notification unit notifies motion blur and blur to be corrected through correction in a distinguished manner.
17. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein a notification mode and a degree of emphasis are switched depending on a capturing mode and a recording resolution of the apparatus.
18. The apparatus according to claim 12, wherein the notification unit notifies motion blur during the first capturing.
20. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the second capturing is at least still capturing.
